The New YORK market has been more
active this week. Values show a gain,
takiag the week as q whole. The general
situa ion shows no particular change.
The run of port receipts for the week
was light, indicating a movement less
than half that of last year. Southern
markets were strong, and supplies were
firmly held.
THE BOSTON STOCK MARKET.
Business has been fairly active on the
Boston Stock Exchange this week, but
irregular, with numerous fluctuations in
the local speClalties. The recent sharp
advance in Atchison, Topeka and Santa
Fe has been sustained without difficulty
on the basis Of much heavier earnings
than year ago. The first four DAYS of
this month show gain of $50, 900 as conn.,
pared with 1886, and the increase since Jan
uary l is upward of SI,O00,O0O. The
possibility of change of control in ST.
Louis and San Francisco lent shade of
weakness Wednesday. There has been q
strong upward movement in Mexican
Central, also Atlantic and Pacific stock
and income bonds, speculation banking
on improved business returns. New
York and New England and Wisconsin
Central remain about steady. The gen
eral sentiment of the market is hopeful.

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: The regiment
of which i was a member rendeZvoused at Bur-
lington, VT. Oct. y, 1861, and was the first and
only cavalry regiment from Vermont. After
being in camp few days and doing guard duty
with sharp sticks, the boys became anxious get
10 the front Camp rumor had ii that we never
should leave the State; that before we could get
equipments and a little drilling on horseback
the war would be ended. Well do / remember
how some Of the most patriotic wanted 10 get
transferred to the infantry-anything to get TO
the front aud throttle the rebellion at once.
But time passed on, equipments and arms
arrived, and the night OF Dec. TO- 1861, found
us in Washington, ID. Z. Our resting-place for
the night and for several nights following was
a deserted graveyard on or near Capitol Hill.
/ say deserted" for the bodies Of the dead
had been removed, leaving the graves as they
were opened. Ii was not a pleasant feeling
when we discovered our surroundings, and add
ed TO this came a pouring rain. III you ever
saw a homesick lot Of men, it was those same
Nermonters
The next day and night were passed in view
ing the city Of Washington. We were a little
aristocratic, and took our meals down town."
Who that passed through Washington does not
remember the Soldiers Home? That was our
hotel. Bill of fare: Breakfast-coilee, boiled
tongue and bread dinner-broad coffee and
boiledtOngue; supper-boiled tongue coffee and
bread. As some Of the late corners to camp the
second night neared what they thought was
their tent, they would go plump into a grave
halffull Of water. Then such words as they
used would blister paper But it was fun for
those in their tents, and many Ia! ha! was
raised during the night as one and another
would tumble into the open graves.
On the 25th Of December, 1861, we started
from Washington TO march TO Annapolis, Nd,
where we were TO make Winter quarters.
Marching all day we found at night that we had
taken the wrong road, and we were as far from
Annapolis as when we started in the morning.
Knowing nothing about the country, we were
fearful lest we might be near the enemy. We
went into camp, putting out pickets 10 pre-
vent capture We were not allowed TO have
any fires, for fear the enemy might discover us
aud bag the whole lot Of green Vcrmonters
The truth was there was no enemy within 50
miles of us. The next night found us at An
napolis, where the 9Th ~ Y. Cav. boys greeted
US and gave us supper.-S. A. CLARK, Co. F, LIST

DECISIONS OF THE NATIONAL PRESIDENT.

Query. Can n newly-orgnnized Corps be given
any number except in the order Of its rank?
Answer The section referring to the matter in
our Regulations is stated that it would seem
To provide that n new Corps could take vacant
number, although not explicitly stated. 1t is
proper that Corps disbanded for the purpose of
organizing on a better basis. should be permitted
to assume its original number, but the proprety of
ever issuing n charter TO newly-organized Corps,
and permitting it to appropriate "A number which
would place it in numerical rank with those organ
lied months and years before is most certainly an
injustice.
Query. Has n person no longer a member of
the W.R.C, any right TO wear the badge Of the
Order?
Answer. When member sewers her connection
with the W.RC., either by honorable discharge or
by being dropped from the rolls for non payment
Of dues. she certainly has moral right to wear
the badge Of any Order 10 which she no longer be-
longs, bat it being her own property it cannot be
taken from her by the Corps. member severing
her connection with the Order cannot visit any
Corps during its session.

the horses, endeavoring to stop
them. When the team got about
opposite the Carriage Co.'s shop
quite q crowd had gathered in the
street to barricade the further pro-
gress of the runaways, but Mr..
Schumann succeeded in getting hold
of one of the discngaged reins and
with the assistance of the gallant
Portuguese succeeded in stopping
the team. The by-standers then
extricaled the man caught under
